Huffy, now there is a brand name I haven't heard of since primary school.

At least they must have used a lot of steel :)

Makes you wanna buy the 'mountainbike' after reading not for off road use

Oh my god, at $119 it's costing you $100 more than it is worth.

Please do not purchase this and expect to EVER enjoy riding it.

I humbly admit to having purchased a hi-ten huffy with dual suspension. It was awful to ride, everything went wrong due to the inferior quality parts, tl:dr it sucked.

It was replaced with an $80 secondhand hybrid bike (Giant brand) that was much more enjoyable/rewarding to ride.

If you are going to buy a cheap bike stick to front only or no suspension, cheap DS bikes are gabage.

This is not a "mountain bike". If you try to go off-road it will fall apart. It probably even has a small warning sticker with words to that effect.

Just go to K-mart if you want a cheap bike for occasional on-road use. And it might even be cheaper and lighter than this boat-anchor.

Neg as k-mart and others have cheaper, better MTB-style bikes. Rear-suspension is most certainly NOT a benefit at this price-point.

Heavier than a Russian tractor, weaker than a wet tissue, rear suspension on cheap bikes are a no-no.

Supermarket bikes can be ok for the intended purpose but some are not worthwhile. Choose carefully.

How the hell did my comment get removed…

It is definately over-priced for what it is, half the price and it might be reasonable… better off with a 2nd hander

Do not get a cheap dual suspension bike, you will be so much better of with a front suspensions or no suspension bike with this. And if you took it downhill it would break.

Hopefully it holds together for my 750m ride to the train station!

  Plenty of $60 specials turn up with the same spec that will do that :)
